Lily, 9 years old, NJ | 14 DAYS WAITING

NJ DCFS - Monmouth County

Lily is the oldest of five children living with her grandparents. She is young, but she has already taken on a motherly role to her younger siblings. She loves to read and enjoys reading to her youngest siblings. She loves to swim in the summer and likes playing with dolls, especially LOL dolls. Lily loves arts and crafts and playing outside.

Lily is struggling to adjust to foster care. She loves her grandparents, but she is accustomed to taking care of her siblings, and now that responsibility is gone, which is difficult for her. Lily wishes for some new watercolors to paint with, would love an LOL doll, and really wants a new Dog Man book to read. A gift card to Amazon would enable her to choose all three of these items, which will bring her a little joy.
